I confess - the kit in my sig is the kit I borrow when I want to shoot. It's not mine but I have free access to it almost any time.

Anyways, I have a chance to buy the following kit. Is it worth it at £1600 for the lot? What are the going prices for each bit? (can't find them completed on ebay)

1D II body
550EX speedlite
17-35mm f/2.8
28-70mm f/2.8
70-200mm f/2.8

Thanks in advance!


Current: 5d III | 1Ds3 | 5d II gripped | 40d | 17-40L | 24-105L | 50mm f/1.4 | 100 f/2 | 70-200L f/2.8 | 430EX |
Previously: 10d, 40d, 5d2, 14mm Tamron f/2.8, 16-35L, 100 Macro

~2350 US
that whole thing's worth at least 3k if in good working condition ;)

my idea of a good deal would be: (not really exact but just for your reference)
1D II body - 1k2
550EX speedlite - 100
17-35mm f/2.8 - 400
28-70mm f/2.8 - 500
70-200mm f/2.8 - 800
= 3k total


1D mk II + sigma 10-22 + 100f/2.8 + 70-200/f4L + f/2.8L IS II+ tamron AF 2x + 430EX II
[COLOR=darkgreen] 2x Canon 30D + 2x BG-E2N + 18-55 kit + 50mm f/1.8 II + 85 f/1.8 + 100mm Macro + 70-200f/4L + 17-40f/4L + 430EX + 580 EX II + RRS L plate + Markin Q3 + Gitzo G2220
completely broke :lol:

Thanks - so with a bit of bartering it'd be a great deal. Might see what I can do!
